Shazad Latif Joins Margot Robbie, Jacob Elordi in Emerald Fennell’s ‘Wuthering Heights’

Heathcliff, Catherine, and Edgar, oh my.

Considered one of the great masterpieces of literature, Emily Brontë’s 1847 novel follows the Lintons and the turbulent relationship they have with the Earnshaws’ foster son, Heathcliff. In Fennell’s take, Elordi is playing Heathcliff while Robbie is playing Heathcliff’s secret love, Catherine Earnshaw.

Capping a months-long search for the part, Latif will play Edgar Linton, a well to-do neighbour who falls in love and marries Catherine but must then contend with Heathcliff who returns to enact a revenge on the Catherine and the Earnshaws.MRC is financing the project, with LuckyChap, the banner run by Robbie, Tom Ackerley and Josey McNamara, and is based at Warners, which is producing. Fennell wrote the script and will direct and also produce.
